ILIR: A Friendly Learning Community
For over 30 years, ILIR has offered classes to people who are curious and enjoy learning. Classes are small and interactive. Currently classes are on ZOOM and in-person.
Classes are led by volunteers. Presenters include university faculty, PhD candidates, non-profit executives, retired professionals, community activists, and authors. Classes change each session. Topics include current events, film, science, art, music, philosophy, government, and current issues. We welcome new presenters and topics.
ILIR is a non-profit supported by registration fees, grants and contributions. The organization is led by a part-time Executive Director and a volunteer Board of Trustees with input from the ILIR community.

FAQ's
What makes ILIR different from other lifelong learning programs?
How many classes does ILIR offer?
Currently on ZOOM, we offer as many as seven morning and afternoon classes each week during our Fall, Winter, and Spring Terms of six to eight weeks. In our shorter Summer Term—usually four to six weeks--we offer as many as four different classes each week.
Can you give me examples of ILIR classes?
The ILIR schedule is an eclectic mix of classes that changes each session. ZOOM has offered us a unique opportunity to hear from speakers from all over the country. When we meet in person, larger classes like Current Events, SPOTLIGHT: Science and Environment, SPOTLIGHT: Arts and Literature and Film Club are set up classroom style. Smaller classes like Poetry, Short Stories, Personal Essays, Healthy Relationships in Our Senior Years and You Can Ukulele meet around a conference table.
Do I pay for each class?
No, you pay just one single fee for an entire term. You can attend every class, as many as you wish.
Where are the classes held?
ILIR classes met at the Boca Raton Community Center in downtown Boca Raton.Â
